CRP and infection: We built a regression model, and after the adjustment of confounding factors, we documented that 62.1% of the LV-GLS levels at 6 months, and of LVEF as well, were related to more advanced age, the initial values of CRP and lung injury, and to the baseline sPAP values, but also to some differences in the pathogeny of the viral strains involved in the three infection waves (R2 = 0.621), the latest (the VOC 202012/01 strain) being associated with a worse evolution.
